Litter Free Lunches

At Somerville, we strongly encourage students to have litter free lunch boxes to reduce litter and waste at school. Please encourage your child to return any wrappings and packaging that they may have, to their lunch box, to be disposed of at home. 

Some ideas for litter free lunches include:

• Sandwiches/rolls in reusable plastic containers

• water in a reusable drink bottle brought to school daily

• whole fruits

• snacks in reusable containers

Please do not use cling wrap or pack in muesli bars in wrappers, chip packets, juice boxes or yoghurt squeeze packs. 

If your child purchases their lunch from the canteen, please ensure that the wrappers are packed into their lunch box and disposed of at home. 

We appreciate your support of this initiative.
